    What to buy

    most of the 372s you are watching are probly ported in a head to head race with stock saws and the same bar and chain combo they would be so close as not to matter.

    ms170 oiler problem

    is there a depth measurement for instaling the oil pump in this?

    What to buy

    stick with a brand that has a good dealer close to you.those saws all have a good reputation,but like was said before echos' warranty is a joke.husky and stihl are usually the best brands as far as dealer support goes.

    MS 441....Are they panning out?

    stihl guys just prefer a company that is more consumer friendly.husky dealers may be good or bad but the coporation itself could care less about customers thats been my experence doin warranty work for them.
